Most job classifications in California are entitled to overtime compensation, regardless of the job title or whether the employee is paid by hourly or salary. In California, the test for whether a person is entitled to overtime compensation is based on the person’s actual job duties rather than an arbitrary classification designated by the employer.

Additionally, California law provides for mandatory meal periods and rest breaks based on the number of hours worked by an employee. If an employee is not permitted to take these breaks, he or she is entitled to compensation for that time. These cases are often handled on a class action basis

We also handle minimum wage cases, denial of vacation benefits and other Labor Code violations.
